Every few years, you hear about some new revolution in the process, but nothing much after. Why is that? Is it very hard to scale up or…?
Also, is it going to become more viable as fresh water is becoming more scarce?
Thank you in advance.
Thank you all. So it was basically what I thought. It’s not hard to do, but it is not really feasible due to many factors.

Right now, in most parts of the world, there isn’t an actual shortage of fresh water. The problem is managing and distributing the water that *is* available there, and managing the usage. So it’s generally cheaper to buy & transport water, or reduce usage, than to build and operate a desalination plant. There are some exceptions, like some newly built cities in the Middle East.
